Winter Cocktail Ideas

The Holidays may be over, it doesn’t mean you are not hosting catering events, dinner parties or receptions anymore! Because winter is here and the weather is cold, we thought you might be looking for a couple of Winter Cocktail recipes. What could be better than welcoming your guests with heartwarming cocktails around the theme of winter?

Here are 2 very different Winter Cocktail recipes that will delight your guests on this cold season.

When you are trying to warm up, the first thing that usually crosses your mind is drinking hot beverages. This recipe of Hot Cocoa with Rum will definitely warm up whoever will drink it! For two persons, pour two cups of hot milk and add cocoa – or about 4 ounces of bite-size piece of dark chocolate. Add cinnamon sticks, a couple of teaspoons of honey and sugar and stir until everything is melted. Add a teaspoon of vanilla and one or two teaspoons of rum per person depending on your tastes. After taking out the cinnamon stick, top the cup with whipped cream and enjoy this amazing hot beverage!

But hot beverage are not the only Winter Cocktails that your guests will be craving!

When it comes to actual cocktails, the perfect winter one is the Pomegranate-Champagne Punch. Because the Holidays are over doesn’t mean we can’t have champagne anymore!

Slowly add a whole bottle of champagne to the mix and serve over ice. Don’t forget that presentation is very important! To add a special touch of originality – and possibly a piece of fruit – add a beautifulbamboo skewer such as those and make sure your drinks look amazing!
